3 ἀγρός
Grammatical information: m.Meaning: `field'Compounds: ἄγροικος `who lives in the country' ( ἀγρο-Ϝοικ-); in modern Greek this gave an oppositum γροικός = νοήμων; from this again γροικῶ `understand' (Hatzidakis, Glotta 14, 208f.). ἄγρωστις \< *h₂eǵro-h₁d-tis, cf. νῆστις; Meier-Brügger, KZ 103 (1990) 33f.Derivatives: ἄγριος `agrestis, wild'. ἀγροιώτης (Il.) for ἀγρώτης will have arisen at verse end, Risch 32.

Zero grade is mostly supposed in Av. ī̆zaēna- `of leather', but it is not certain that it refers to the skin of a goat.

7 ἀπτοεπής
Grammatical information: adj.Meaning: unknown; said of Hera (Θ 209).Etymology: Wackernagel BB 4, 2 83f. analyzes as *ἀ-επτο-επής `who speaks words that should not be spoken'; no very convincing. Meier-Brügger ( MSS 50 (1989) 91-96) suggests that it contains *n̥-sngʷʰ-to- `what cannot be sung', cf.

8 ἀφύη
Grammatical information: f.Meaning: `small fry of various fishes' (Epich. H. s. ἀφύων τιμή. S. Thompson. Fishes 19f.). ἀφύα· μεμβράς H.Derivatives: ἀφύδιον (Ar., with ῡ; s. Schwyzer 199); ἀφυώδης `whitish' (Hp.). Denom. ἀφύω `become whitish' (Hp.); Chantr. Form. 431.Etymology: From α privativum and φύω (one compares nonnats `Aphua pellucida' in Nice) seems folk etymology, but see now Meier-Brügger, MSS 52, 1991, 123 - 125, who defends derivation from *n̥-bhuH-o- `without growth' (a recent formation as against Skt. ábhva- `monster, Unwesen' \< *n̥-bhu-o- with loss of laryngeal). The accentuation of the gen. pl. ἀφύων (not - ῶν, Hdn. Gr. 1. 425, 13) points to an unextended stem ἀφῡ- (nom. *ἀφῡ-ς), cf. φυγή, φύγα-δε. Perh. also in Myc. aphu-we, -de.

(AP).Origin: XX [etym. unknown]Etymology: If κ in βρύκω came for γ or χ in βρῦξαι, βρύξω, βρύκω may continue *gʷrūǵ(h)ō like OCS gryzǫ, grysti `gnaw'; with ablaut Lith. gráužiu, gráužti `id.'. Cf. also Arm. krcem `gnaw' \< * kurcem (with metathese as in turc, Gen. trcoy `γνάθος'?). S. Lidén Armen. Stud. 34f. From Celtic one cites OIr. brōn `sorrow', Welsh brwyn `biting pain' (\< *brŭgnos).

Postverbal from ἑψιάομαι, - άσασθαι, also with ἀφ-, ἐφ-, καθ-, `(en)joy, play' (Od.; cf. Wackernagel Unt. 46f.).Derivatives: Also, through loss of the anlauting vowel (Strömberg Wortstudien 45), ψιάδδειν = παίζειν (Ar. Lys. 1302 [lyr.], H.), ψιά χαρά, γελοίασμα, παίγνια H.Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: Formation like the "verbs of disease" in - ιάω (Schwyzer 732); further unclear. Obsolete hypotheses in Bq. - Note the variations: ἐ-, ἑ- ἀ, stress on first or second syllable and ψιά H., ψιάδδειν; the word will be Pre-Greek (Fur. 139, 352, 376). - Meier-Brügger, MSS 50 (1989) assumes a noun * sengʷʰ- ti- `singing', with *῎῎ἔψις from *εμψις; one asks why *ἕμψις was not retained; it does not explain the variations; also there is no reason to assume that the word primarily referred to music.Page in Frisk: 1,604Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > ἑψία

(Solmsen Wortforsch. 244), which stand however beside living aorists ( καῦσαι etc.). -- Not with Pisani Glotta 26, 276f. (as before Bopp and Weber Ind. Streifen 3,39) as `promotory' = Lat. nāsus `nose'; s. Curtius l.c. and W. Hofmann s. nāsum. As the IE words for `island' vary from language to language, we have probably an Aegean loanword (Ernout-Meillet, who want to connect the also unclear Lat. insula; thus Skok Glotta 25, 217ff; against this W. Hofmann s.v.) - For a Pre-Greek loan also Fur. 387, who points to the variation between single σ and geminate.

16 πάγχυ
Grammatical information: Adv. = πάνυ.Meaning: `altogether' (Il., Sapph., Hdt.).Origin: GR [a formation built with Greek elements]Etymology: To πᾶν with unclear ending. Mostly with Osthoff MU 4, 253 f. considered as transformation of *πάγ-χι (as ἧ-χι) a.o. after πάν-υ. Against this Lagercrantz GHÅ 1925: 3, 137 f. and Schwyzer 624 n. 8 with other hypotheses: haplolog fom *πὰν ἀγχύ (Lagercrantz; to Skt. aṃhú- `narrow'; s. ἄγχω, ἄγχι); dissimilation from *πάγχνυ after πρόχνυ or to χέω (Schwyzer). Thesleff Intensification 144 f., with further details, gives no solution. Meier-Brügger HS 107 (1994)87f. assumes an old compound with * kʰu-t- of χέω, so `completely poured'.Page in Frisk: 2,460Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > πάγχυ

17 πόσις 1
πόσις 1., - ιοςGrammatical information: m.Etymology: Old and widespread designation of the lord of the house and the husband: Skt. páti-, Av. paiti- `lord, ruler, husband', Balt., e.g. Lith. pàts (older patìs) `husband', Toch. A pats, B petso (obl.) `husband', Lat. potis `capable, powerful'; IE *póti-s. The word is often used as 2. member of a compound or with a gen., e.g. δεσπότης (s. v.), Skt. viś-páti- `lord of the house', Lith. vieš-pats `Lord-(god)' (cf. on οἶκος), Lat. hos-pes `guest(friend)', Slav., e.g. Russ. gos-pódь `Lord, god', Goth. bruÞ-faÞs `bridegroom'. -- The meaning `lord, husband' is generally explained from a older meaning `self' in Lith. pàts (and in Av. * xvae-paiti-) as in the identifying and endorsing particle Lith. pàt `self, even', Hitt. - pat (- pit, -pe) `thus, also, even'; s. the rich lit. in Fraenkel Wb. s. v., further Benveniste Word 10, 260 ff.; this interpretation ist however with extensive and convincing criticism rejected by Szemerényi Syncope in Greek and I.-Eur. 337 ff. -- To be rejected Weisweiler Paideuma 3, 112 ff. (IE *pótis from Sumerian); s. Mayrhofer s. pátiḥ. -- Cf. πότνια, also Ποσειδῶν.Page in Frisk: 2,584Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > πόσις 1
